I just bought a 1987 turbo supra. I have turned the key before I bought it and it worked fine. I went to try and pick it up last night and the key wont turn. I think the little button on the side of it is stuck in because I pressed it a bunch of times and it won't budge. It stays in the locked position. Anything I can do to get that thing to pop out or do I have to buy a new ignition lock?

Is the steering wheel locked in place too? Sometimes that happens to me and turning the key while jerking the steering wheel will "unlock" it.
If that isn't the case I would just go to a junkyard and find a key and switch that is working. Take the steering column cover off and then there is a screw or two for the switch as well as a little hole you will need to push something small into to release it.
